Mayor Kurt Dykstra turned down the familys appeal to city council last week, saying that it was to protect downtown restaurant owners who had asked that the success of the downtown district not be infringed upon by those who dont share in the costs of maintaining the attractiveness of that space.
So this is a case of crony capitalism hurting small businesses.
